This is an essential reference source for every car aficionado."--BOOK JACKET.

DOWNLOAD EBOOK →Another hilarious collection of irreverent bumper stickers. Bumper stickers are the ultimate proclamations of someone's opinion, aired in a place where many can see it but few can comment back on it. In this collection of bumper stickers-so provocative that it's suggested they be put on other people's cars-there are such doozies as "This Car is Condemned-U.S. Dept. of Trash," the classic "WASH ME," or "CRIME SCENE!" and "Who Knew Trash Cans Came With Powering Steering." The book is formatted so that the stickers can be easily removed, and reusable again and again
